Souy is a 76-year-old loving grandmother. She has one daughter and eight grandchildren. Sadly, her husband passed away 10 years ago from tuberculosis. Nowadays, Souy lives with her daughter who sells fish in the local market. She enjoys spending time with her family and visiting her local pagoda. One year ago, Souy developed a cataract in her left eye, causing her cloudy vision and sensitivity to light. She has difficulty seeing things clearly, including colors and faces, and is worried about falling when walking, thus she is unable to travel on her own. When Souy learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, she traveled for one hour seeking treatment. On February 13th, doctors will perform a small incision cataract surgery and implant an intraocular lens in her left eye. After recovery, she will be able to see clearly. Souy needs help to fund this $253 procedure. She said, "After surgery I hope I can see better and recognize people more easily."
